They say: "Combine a warm welcome on board with our unique breed of on shore adventure tours. Choosing Voyages of Discovery means you travel with those who know and once again we’ll be blending the unusual and the exotic for our spring 2009 programme. Booking early means savings of up to 35% on the brochure price."

We say: "An ever-increasing programme of discovery cruises means there are many new destinations for 2009, including five ports of call in South Africa, from Cape Town with its emblematic Table Mountain, to Richard’s Bay in the Eastern Cape, as well as wine tours and safaris. There are also new cruises to Mozambique, Madagascar, Mauritius and the Maldives."

They say: "Gecko’s offers three ways of touring the Middle East. Budget offers a minimal number of included trips, Adventurer tours offer interaction with local tribes such as the Bedouins and Nubians. Choosing an Explorer tour includes a cruise on the Nile River."

We say: "The best known destination of Egypt is, of course, included, but Gecko’s will help you delve deeper following in the footsteps of the Greeks, Romans, Abyssinians, Ottomans or even the Nabataens who had a stronghold in Petra. Fascinating stuff!"
